| Ayumu | Hi | 08:14 |
| Mohan_chml | Ayumu, hello | 08:17 |
| Ayumu | I am installing ubuntu right now, on a hdd with 2 partitions. Windows is on C drive. I have data on D drive. Both are backed up. I want to have dual boot. What partition options do I choose? | 08:18 |
| Mohan_chml | Ayumu, you have a free space of atleast 10 GB in any drives?? | 08:19 |
| Ayumu | D drive | 08:19 |
| Ayumu | C drive has space as well but i dont really want to touch it. | 08:20 |
| Mohan_chml | okay now re-partition D drive | 08:20 |
| Ayumu | Er, the Specify partions manually (advanced) option? | 08:21 |
| Mohan_chml | manually | 08:21 |
| Ayumu | Ok | 08:22 |
| hobgoblin | you can make partitions before you start the installer if you want - sys admin partition editor | 08:22 |
| hobgoblin | Ayumu: not done it yet then :) | 08:23 |
| Ayumu | I see sda2 (C drive i think) sda5 (d drive) and sda3 (I have no idea what this is). | 08:23 |
| Ayumu | Do I select the new partition table option, or the change the sda5 option? | 08:24 |
| hobgoblin | change sda5 if that is your d drive | 08:25 |
| Mohan_chml | heya hobgoblin (: | 08:25 |
| hobgoblin | we can have a look at the partitions if you want | 08:25 |
| Ayumu | change it | 08:25 |
| hobgoblin | all you need to do is shrink it - then create partitions in the unallocated space | 08:26 |
| Ayumu | How big should linux partition be? | 08:26 |
| hobgoblin | root needs to be 10Gb or so - swap depends on ram and whether you want to hibernate | 08:27 |
| Ayumu | hibernate yes. | 08:27 |
| hobgoblin | then swap has to be at least as big as ram | 08:27 |
| hobgoblin | do you know how much ram you have? if not run free -m from a terminal | 08:28 |
| Ayumu | So current partition is 75gb, I shrink it, and select the do not use the partition option? | 08:28 |
| hobgoblin | hi Mohan_chml - I thought I'd said hi :) | 08:29 |
| Mohan_chml | hobgoblin, negative :P | 08:29 |
| hobgoblin | Ayumu: I always create partitions outside the installer and then use manual option | 08:29 |
| hobgoblin | Mohan_chml: it's still early lol | 08:29 |
| Mohan_chml | hobgoblin, WAKE UP | 08:29 |
| Ayumu | Okok | 08:30 |
| hobgoblin | Ayumu: is this a [s]dream[/s] nightmare then | 08:30 |
| Ayumu | So how do I partition in the live boot state? | 08:30 |
| hobgoblin | sys admin partition editor - might be called gparted | 08:31 |
| hobgoblin | Ayumu: do you want us to look at your current partitions? | 08:31 |
| Ayumu | I have no idea how to upload a picture | 08:31 |
| Mohan_chml | Ayumu, open up terminal and type sudo fdisk -l and paste it in paste.ubuntu.com | 08:32 |
| Ayumu | terminal? | 08:32 |
| hobgoblin | apps - accessories - terminal | 08:32 |
| * Mohan_chml finds the saviour hobgoblin, whenever hes away from the screen :D | 08:34 | |
| Ayumu | Lemme see if I can find my camera | 08:34 |
| Mohan_chml | Ayumu, no need of camera | 08:34 |
| Mohan_chml | just copy the text response for sudo fdisk -l and paste the text in paste.ubuntu.com | 08:35 |
| hobgoblin | then put a name in the name box - hit the paste button and give us the url | 08:35 |
| Mohan_chml | you can copy only by right clicking... ctrl+c will not work. So use mouse | 08:36 |
| Ayumu | No internet connection | 08:37 |
| hobgoblin | k - did you run the command? | 08:38 |
| Ayumu | Yeah | 08:38 |
| hobgoblin | sda 1 has an * under boot? | 08:39 |
| Mohan_chml | Ayumu, can you find sda1 and sda5?? or is there any other numbers after sda?? | 08:39 |
| Ayumu | It says invalid option 1 | 08:39 |
| Ayumu | Ok i tried L | 08:40 |
| hobgoblin | :) | 08:40 |
| Ayumu | It has a * under sda2 | 08:40 |
| hobgoblin | oh ok that is C | 08:41 |
| hobgoblin | I suspect | 08:41 |
| Ayumu | Ho do I paste into ubuntu again? | 08:41 |
| Ayumu | firefox | 08:41 |
| Ayumu | ? | 08:41 |
| hobgoblin | yea - paste.ubuntu.com | 08:42 |
| Ayumu | url is 477810 | 08:43 |
| Ayumu | paste.ubuntu.com/477810 | 08:44 |
| Mohan_chml | hobgoblin, sda2 is the boot | 08:44 |
| Mohan_chml | so sda 5 | 08:44 |
| Ayumu | is d drive? | 08:44 |
| Mohan_chml | yeah! | 08:45 |
| hobgoblin | you'll need to resize that one so you can create 2 partitions inside sda1 which is an extended partition | 08:46 |
| hobgoblin | so assuming you backed up and defragged - start the partition editor - grab the right hand edge of the partition to be resized and drag it to the left to the size you want it to be and then apply - wait for as long as it takes and then do the rest | 08:47 |
| Ayumu | where is the partition editor| | 08:48 |
| hobgoblin | sys admin menu | 08:48 |
| hobgoblin | if you have started the installer - exit that | 08:48 |
| Ayumu | I already exited the installer | 08:48 |
| hobgoblin | :) | 08:48 |
| Ayumu | Is it gparted? | 08:48 |
| hobgoblin | yep | 08:49 |
| hobgoblin | could take a while to do it | 08:51 |
| Ayumu | shrink /dev/sda5 from 70.74 GiB to 56.10 GiB | 08:52 |
| Ayumu | 1 operation pending | 08:52 |

| seidos | Ayumu, 2gb / 8? | 09:30 |
| bobo123 | How do I do to add IBM437 character encoding to gedit so I can open dos-textfiles correctly? | 12:19 |
| bobo123 | so all borderline-characters etc is correctly. IBM437 isn't in the list and it is impossible to write anything manually there either :-/ | 12:21 |
| duanedesign | hello bobo123 | 12:25 |
| bobo123 | hi duanedesign! I have now tried to add IBM437 in /apps/gedit-2/preferences/encodings with gconf-editor but it doesn't help. it isn't available in the list in gedti anyway :-( | 12:32 |
| duanedesign | bobo123: i am not sure. I cant find much on that | 12:36 |
| duanedesign | :/ | 12:36 |
| duanedesign | bobo123: man gedit says there is a --encoding | 12:38 |
| duanedesign | gedit --encoding ibm437 foo.txt ? | 12:38 |
| bobo123 | duanedesign: when I try it says "ibm437: ogiltig kodning." ("bad encoding") and opens the file in IBM850 instead | 12:51 |
| bobo123 | Perhaps I should find another editor (hopefully faster loading too and without tabs) is it possible to change ubuntu to allways use that one instead for all textfiles (not only .txt but .nfo and all the others that I up to now have opened in gedit) ? | 12:53 |
| duanedesign | bobo123: yes toy can change the deefault | 13:28 |
| duanedesign | you* | 13:28 |
| duanedesign | bobo123: right-click on the file, select Properties --> Open With. What you select there will apply to all files of that type | 13:29 |

| n8ofsp8ds | hey guys im using easybcd and im trying to put ubuntu in the windows bootloader do i use grub legacy or grub 2 | 21:35 |
| aveilleux | n8ofsp8ds: GRUB is a bootloader that replaces (or rather, comes before) the Windows bootloader. It's not a tool to edit the Windows bootloader. | 21:36 |
| n8ofsp8ds | so you cant use easybcd to put ubuntu right next to window7 in windows loader | 21:37 |
| aveilleux | n8ofsp8ds: Oh, You want to.... why would you want to use the Windows bootloader? GRUB is much more powerful than the Windows bootloader. The normal dual-boot procedure is: GRUB boots to Ubuntu OR to the Windows bootloader | 21:39 |
| n8ofsp8ds | i know | 21:39 |
| n8ofsp8ds | i rather use the windows loader | 21:40 |
| aveilleux | n8ofsp8ds: I'm not entirely sure why you would want to, but I digress. I thought that EasyBCD could boot straight to Linux without GRUB. | 21:41 |
| n8ofsp8ds | ya it can but | 21:41 |
| n8ofsp8ds | there options like grub legacy and grub 2 | 21:42 |
| n8ofsp8ds | what the proper one to pick | 21:42 |
| n8ofsp8ds | grub 2 right | 21:42 |
| aveilleux | n8ofsp8ds: It's apparently been a very long time since I've used EasyBCD. Ubuntu 10.04 comes with GRUB2 by default. | 21:43 |
| n8ofsp8ds | so then grub 2 would be the choice to go with then | 21:44 |
| n8ofsp8ds | ok | 21:44 |
